Vaccines - Covid 19

[Robinhood]

Cheers HH and Lindosfan1,

The length of time it would take to get 2 vaccines in the UK is the biggest uncertainty. And of course, the rules might change again.

[HHTel]

In the meantime, all the HHH outlets are grossly underused. I'm guessing that part of the reason of super quick processing at an actual HHH dept is that they have direct access to the hospital files.
I spent half an hour at HHH3, 5 mins for me and the rest of the time waiting for the other half to be issued with her medication. In that time, I never saw a single person arrive to register. There couldn't have been more than half a dozen or so 'normal patients' in the whole hospital.

As of now, according to mo prom app, there are still 470 slots available on 9 July. Probably will be all gone by this time tomorrow.

Something for the junta as to how to treat foreigners.

I'm not so sure that is so good. Personally I want the vaccine for the protection it hopefully brings. However, many want the vaccine for the doors it will open e.g. freedom to travel.

If you simply want the protection, the treatment at the link works. If you want the accompanying documentation, no NHS number, no proof of address, no personal identification, etc is going to cause problems.

Social distancing seemed quite relaxed looking at the photo.

Thai enquirer report:
hospitals-restrict-vaccine-registration-amid-supply-concerns

"The locally produced AstraZeneca vaccine will reportedly not be delivered in June as scheduled."

How long can the government wait before admitting Thai made AZ will be late if the above is true?

PKK isn't interested in Sinopharm vaccine. Hurrah?

Hardly surprising, but the junta is already saying the opposite ... time will tell though I reckon people will be forced to take one of the Chinese jabs (20,000 baht fine or 2 years in jail type of threats if they refuse - it is a dictatorship afterall).

I don't think your average undocumented illegal is going to be too worried about international travel.

[Big Boy]

Yes, but we are talking about a post put forward as, "Something for the junta as to how to treat foreigners," in respect of vaccination.

Personally, I think the junta's stance of offering to legalise undocumented illegals first is a much better way to go. If they aren't documented, how will the government know their targets to achieve their magical herd immunity goals?

So, off I pop to HHH5 this morning to register.

Detoured down to HHH3 and within 10 minutes given my slip for AZ vaccination on 9th July(not holding my breath)but at least registered. Only me there and no requirement for copies of passport pages. No pink card, no problem.

Big to HHTel for the heads up.

Where exactly is HH3. Is it down on Soi 98?
I tried to register in Pranburi, where I live, but they told me "Only with Thai ID" and I should go to Hua Hin Hospital.

[HHTel]

Soi 89. Heading south from Hua Hin, it's the soi before the traffic lights. Turn left into soi 89 and HHH3 is on the right about half way down.

[pitsch]

Thank you, yes I ment soi 89 not 98. I found it on Google Maps.

I was in Bluport at about 13.20 and the seating area was completely empty. Later, I saw 3 farangs sat in the chairs waiting to be seen. I wonder if the majority have now registered?
